Comments: “Patient Sailor” had sailed around the world prior to being purchased by her present owner in 1992. Since then he as made three round trips from the Caribbean to Brazil via the Azores, Canary Islands and Cape Verde Islands. The boat sailed to Florida from Puerto Rico in 2004. All these passages were made single-handed. The boat is very easy to manage and accommodates well to steering by the Aries wind vane. Because of its long keel it is steady on course and off the wind this vessel is fast and stable. The raised deck offers much space for safe deck work while underway and storage. Below, there is exceptional locker space for tools, spares, food, provisions, and clothes as well as books. The boat is federally documented. This is an ideal, proven, live aboard vessel for a single hander, couple or a small family and is being offered at a price of 78,000. Currently, the boat is at Westland Marina, Titusville, Florida. For an appointment contact “Bob” at 321-652-1468. Cash buyers only.
